He wanted to turn around and shout that the person you are looking for is here, but was stopped by Chen Xiaonian.

"If you go out now, we will accuse you of harboring a suspect.

No one will be able to escape by then.”

Lai Fu was frightened by Chen Xiaonian's words.

"My fellow heroes, please let me go."

Lai Fu was almost scared to tears by the scene before him.

He just wanted to come up and tip off Uncle Gu based on his conscience and make some extra money.

But I didn't expect that I would get into so much trouble.

"I've heard my wife mention you before, saying that you're an expert at gathering information in Qingzhou.

So I guess you know somewhere to hide."

Lai Fu was hesitating whether to tell them, but was frightened by Gu Sifan's sword.

Looking at the sword across his neck, Lai Fu's legs couldn't stop shaking.

As the noise outside grew louder, Gu Sifan's sword got closer.

Lai Fu had no choice but to compromise.

Through coercion and inducement, the few people finally found out a secret passage under the inn.

Without hesitation, they knocked Lai Fu unconscious and headed towards the secret passage.

Several people carefully avoided the soldiers and successfully arrived at the kitchen.

“I don’t know if Lai Fu is right.”

"He had no reason to lie to us."

A few people moved the water tank next to the stove and indeed saw a secret passage.

Several people looked at each other and quickly jumped down.

The officers and soldiers who were chasing them found their room after they left.

The leading officer pushed open the door and took a closer look. Only Lai Fu was lying quietly on the ground. The others had disappeared long ago.

"¨` Quickly report to Lord Han, they have already escaped."

Immediately, a servant ran out without stopping.

When Han Chong heard the news, he was indeed furious.

"Go wake up Lai Fu and bring him here."

Soon the unconscious Lai Fu was brought to Han Chong.

Han Chong ordered his men to splash water on him to wake him up.

Lai Fu (Nuo Li) was doused with a bucket of ice water and woke up slowly.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Han Chong with a dark face and a questioning look.

"I, a commoner, kowtow to Lord Han." Seeing that Lai Fu was a sensible man, Han Chong's anger subsided a little.

"Tell me, where are the people in that room now?"

Lai Fu shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

Han Chong narrowed his eyes, thinking that Lai Fu was lying to them.

"You must think carefully before you speak."

Chapter 463 Zhu Wusi’s Plan

"Your Excellency, I dare not deceive you."

"Then why did you pass out in that room?"

"I got up in the morning and asked them when they would have breakfast, but I was knocked unconscious as soon as I opened the door."

Lai Fu pretended to pat his head.

"Are you sure?"

Lai Fu nodded.

But he never expected Han Chong to rush over and kick him, "Do you think I don't know that what you said is false?"

Lai Fu knew that he couldn't escape what was coming.

Just as Lai Fu was thinking about how to report to Han Chong, a sentence that made him shudder came from above his head.

"You'd better not lie to me and think about your family."

Lai Fu could have been willing to cover for Chen Xiaonian and the others, but he was frightened by this sentence.

He knew that he couldn't lie to Han 950 Chong at this moment, so he could only apologize to them.

He silently said sorry in his heart, then pointed in the direction of the kitchen and said.

"Master Han, they left through the secret passage in the back kitchen."

After receiving the news, Han Chong ordered his subordinates to hurry up and catch up with Chen Xiaonian and the others.

He squatted down and patted Lai Fu's face with his hand, "Well done."

And the people in the secret passage will soon reach the exit.

"I wonder if Lai Fu betrayed us?"

Zhan Yan looked at the exit that was just around the corner and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"I think they will send people after us soon. We need to hurry to the exit."

Chen Xiaonian knew that Lai Fu would definitely reveal their whereabouts to Han Chong.

So he knocked Lai Fu unconscious at the beginning.

One was to allow him to delay some time, and the other was to save Lai Fu's life.

Because he knew that if Han Chong saw Lai Fu awake, he would be so angry that he would kill Lai Fu to vent his anger.

Qingshu could more or less guess what Chen Xiaonian was thinking, and urged everyone to move forward quickly.

They quickened their pace and soon reached the exit.

“I didn’t expect to be outside the city.”

Chen Xiaonian looked at the exit, slightly distracted.

"what happened?"

Chen Xiaonian looked around.

"This should be outside Qingzhou City."

Qingshu, I didn't expect this secret passage to be so long.

"Since we are already outside the city, let's leave here first."

Just as everyone was getting ready to leave, Chen Xiaonian didn't move.

"what happened?"

"I can't leave yet. I have to rescue my master."

Qingshu knew that Chen Xiaonian was always worried about his master.

"Then I'll be with you."

Chen Xiaonian looked at Qingshu and shook his head.

"You should go back to the capital first and ask the emperor for help."

"In addition to saving my master, we also have to protect the people of Qingzhou, so we have to use the royal secret agents."

Qingshu looked at Chen Xiaonian and was silent for a long time.

"I know you're worried about me, I promise I'll come back safely."

Chen Xiaonian took Qingshu's hand and was reluctant to let go.

Qingshu felt the warmth coming from her palm and knew that she could not stop Chen Xiaonian.

"Then you must be careful."

Chen Xiaonian nodded to Qingshu, said goodbye to everyone, and walked towards Qingzhou City.

Qingshu looked at Chen Xiaonian's lonely back and made a decision in her heart.

"Xiao Sizhanyan, you guys escort Uncle Gu back to Beijing, I'll go with him."

Gu Sifan knew that Qingshu was worried about Chen Xiaonian, so she had to go.

Gu Sifan knew that his sister was actually very similar to Chen Xiaonian in one respect, which was that once they set their mind to something, they would complete it no matter how difficult it was.

"Don't worry, sister. I will protect Uncle Gu well."

Qing Shu looked at Gu Sifan with gratitude and followed Chen Xiaonian.

Qing Shu used her Qing Gong skills to catch up with Chen Xiaonian in a short while.

Chapter 464 Rescue

Chen Xiaonian looked at the person blocking his way in surprise.

"Why are you here? I don't want you..."

Qing Shu didn't wait for Chen Xiaonian to finish speaking, she walked up to him and hugged him tightly.

"I'm still worried about you."

Chen Xiaonian reached out and stroked the back of Qingshu's head, feeling helpless.

"You are always unexpected."

Qing Shu let him go and looked at Chen Xiaonian quietly.

"You are still the same, always adventurous. I have to accompany you this time."

Chen Xiaonian was deeply moved after hearing Qingshu's words.

"After all, your master has helped me."

"It's only right that I should help."

"Yes, you are the wife of his good disciple, so you should respect your master."

It would have been fine if he didn't mention this. As soon as he mentioned it, Qingshu thought of how he addressed her in the inn just now.

Looking at Qingshu's earlobes gradually turning red, Chen Xiaonian knew that she was thinking about what had just happened in the inn.

"Why are you still so shy?" Chen Xiaonian looked at her jokingly.

Qing Shu felt even more embarrassed when he looked at her and turned away.

Unexpectedly, Chen Xiaonian secretly put his arms around her from behind and quietly kissed her on the ear.

"Qingshu, I can't wait to marry you."

Qing Shu blushed at Chen Xiaonian's bold action, and broke free from his arms and stood five steps away from him.

Chen Xiaonian felt his heart melt when he saw Qingshu's little daughter's behavior.

He walked over slowly, took Qingshu's hand, and walked forward.

Looking at Chen Xiaonian's profile, Qingshu's heart felt like it was soaked in a honey pot, very sweet.

On this side, the two of them sneaked into Qingzhou again, while on the other side, Li Deyun and his group finally arrived in the capital.

"We've finally arrived in the capital." Mu Xiaoyan felt a little emotional for a moment as she looked at the city gate that was so close.

"Yes, it's been too long." Li Deyun stood beside Mu Xiaoyan, quietly looking at the carriage at the city gate.

"Let's go there first."

Li Deyun took Yaoyue and Mu Xiaoyan towards the carriage.
